on this thread are helpful links for students. near the bottom are links to sites that have lab information. you'll have to develop your own chart. i also suggest that you purchase a lab reference book.

mosby's diagnostic and laboratory test reference by kathleen deska pagana and timothy james pagana.

davis's comprehensive handbook of laboratory and diagnostic tests with nursing implications, 2nd edition, by anne m. van leeuwen, todd r. kranpitz and lynette smith. cost is $42.95.
